The problem with both Boar and Venison is where to buy it?
Supermarkets rarely stock it - mind you, I've seen New Zealand venison in Tesco's - Why New Zealand?
Farm shops and Sunday Markets can (and often do) overcharge.

I buy mine on a market stall held in the week - run by the man who shot the beasts :-D
So, fussy fanny here can ask for Roe Deer liver rather than Red Deer liver - and yes, they are different!! :-D :-D :-D
